"Maple" Syrup

I live in the land of real maple syrup now, and my children don't even like the taste of it.

So I decided to make my own syrup this morning - a combination of 1 1/2 c. water, 1 c. Sucanat, 1/2 c. honey, 1 t. vanilla (I don't have maple flavoring on hand).

It tastes pretty good, and my oldest even had some which is surprising! I made whole wheat/flax pancakes. I love that I can put flax in just about anything - I grind it finely in my blender (it is too oily to go in the wheat mill). My kids don't like fish, and only 2 of them really like eating eggs, so I can give them a good dose of Omega 3s unbeknownst to them! :-)
